Perfect Entertain a lot with teas. These strainers are not only practical but also very good looking. They add a lot to the table and people are impressed when you pour tea through them. Lots of fun to have. Tried to find them in the stores and couldn’t. Thanks Amazon – these are exactly what I wanted. Love having the tray to sit them in when they drip.
Teacup-sized strainers I have purchased several sets of these. They do a great job straining out the bits of loose tea. the handles are sized perfectly for sitting on top of a teacup as you pour. I like the mesh strainer on these better than the type with drilled holes and the bowl that holds the strainer is wonderful.
